Marking another historic moment for Israeli sports, Israeli judoka Sagi Muki won gold at the Judo World Championship in Tokyo on Wednesday in the men’s -81 kg (178 lbs) category.

Muki is the first Israeli male judoka to receive this honor.

Prior to Wednesday’s matches, all eyes were on Iranian judoka Saeid Mollaei, the defending champion, because there was the very real possibility that he would have to compete against Muki.

But Mollaei was knocked out of the race in the quarter-final stage. Muki won the final against Belgium’s Matthias Casse.

Do you mean that Jews should be disqualified because they have been helped by God Almighty?
This could be a valid point.

Abutbul got a silver medal, not so easy to win in Japan, mazaltov sagi and
great performance to all Judoka in Tokio, it is impressive, when I compare
today’s judo to old school, but on the other side, judo became a kind
of Greco Roman Judo, no grips to the belt, no below the belt or legs,
many locks forbidden…. They want the throw because the
couch potatoes in front of the TV love and understand
throws better than other things.
